Food was fine. Their pork tenderloin sandwiches are awesome. But dont trust their posted hours on GMB. They close earlier than 11. I went last to order dinner a little bit past 9pm and was told the kitchen was closing very soon. Google My Business showed their hours as 11:00 am to 11:00 pm on most days including Saturday when I was their. Imagine my surprise when I sat down a few minutes after 9:00 pm and was told the kitchen was closing. They locked the front doors at 9:30. So much for 11:00pm as advertised.

First time dinning out since the lockdown. We ate outside. Staff was very careful to social distance themselves. We started with drinks salad one got pizza other then beef manhattan. Both were good. First time here and i think well be back.

Amazing environment and great food. It’s a nice bar and grill environment with an elevated bar and a good amount of seating. Also has a large selection of drink choices if you want something more than just your standard beer. I’ll be back for sure.

We have been up in Shadeland area a handful of times and we always try and stop for lunch. Love the club (GIANT CLUB) and they have a great Reuben. Great atmosphere and friendly staff.

Friendly staff. Great food reasonably priced. Has an upbeat feel but you arent straining to hear the conversation at your table. Family friendly

Ordered the Blue Moo burger and kettle fries. Blue cheese was brought later. Ordered burger medium- under cooked- more like rare. Kettle fries were literally crumbs. Not busy, but service was less than stellar. This place has gone downhill ant it will be my last visit.

Love the pizza! Unique sauce. Cant say exactly what they do differently, but its delicious! Great kettle chips with the sandwiches, too.

Ordered a pizza from Alibi’s went to grab a piece of pizza and a moving insect was in the box. Because we ordered from door dash they said there was nothing they can do because we ordered from door dash though it came from there restaurant and they were the ones who made it and placed the pizza in the box. They are telling us to call door dash. How would this be a door dash issue when the restaurant boxes the food.

Good is priced overpriced . ordered a pizza it tasted ok, nothing special. Not many people in the place,and service was slow.

Review №12

Like a lot of others I want to like this place but they just make it impossible to. The service is slow and they have perfected the art of ignoring you. Food must set in window a bit as it’s like warm at best. They have probably run their course with my patronage

The service was great. If going for a drink and bar snacks a great environment. If going for dinner the food is good but not remarkable. If we were eating only as a bar / hangout it would be 5 stars.

Ordered from Door Dash for delivery. First of all let me say the breaded tenderloin and the chicken ranch sandwiches were great as usual. However, the appetizer firecracker shrimp (pictured) was pitiful. 11 penny sized shrimp, lettuce and sauce for $10.

Really enjoyed the atmosphere for college game day. My pretzel sandwich was delicious. HIDDEN GEM! I wouldnt have stopped in if it wasnt for my local host. Thank you for the great service.

This is a good neighborhood spot for drinks and dinner. The menu has many good options and a nice beer selection. It’s also a good place to watch a game.

Ordered my usual lunch today, but messed it up. Their cook came out to the table to confirm if it was correct and he was right, ordered the cobb when I normally get chef. Simple things but, man, I appreciate that service!

Cold. Pricey for what you get. Gluten free pizza cost me $30. Did take off $5. Wow!! This is one place will never go to again. No wonder its always empty. My server though was wonderful.

Good pizza, like that its a bar-like feel but you can take minors in to eat pretty good food. Wings were good too, and Im not usually one to eat them, but there I was chowing down!

First time Ive been here. Not too crowded, wait staff was friendly. I ordered a meaty Pizza and it was great. But my order took longer then I thought it should have. Overall great neighborhood pub.

Review №31

Had a great time here just sitting and chatting for lunch. Food selection is pretty minimal for a vegetarian (not their fault) but they really helped me out by suggesting I suggest chicken with some eggplant, which was great! Food was okay but it’s a bit more swinging towards a bar/bar food. Still liked stopping by.

Review №32

Forever in love with this place. If you do not get the Cheesy Bread you are missing out. Great beer selections. Great place to watch any sporting event and grab a delicious pizza.

Review №33

French Onion soup was good. Unfortunately the wings were disgusting to be frank. Overcooked meat, but the fried breading was soggy and slimy. Also, overpriced in my opinion. We ended up throwing the chicken wings away and wasting money. Wings must not be their specialty- but Im afraid to eat here again for fear of another bad food experience

I want to like this place a lot and I keep giving it another chance... And it keeps being average at best... Servers are friendly... And very slow... The food is the problem... Not cooked right... Ever! Best thing about Alibis is its really close to home...

Review №35

Food was great! Hubby said that the bar was awesome too. We have three littles so it was best for us just to get food to go. First timers but we’ll definitely be back for more!

Review №37

We eat at Alibi’s a lot, we ate there last night it was packed, which is a good thing for them, however it took us 45 mins to get our food, and we watched two other tables get there’s before us and we got there before they did. I had the scallops, they were just OK, they came swimming in a very lemony sauce with spinach the bacon was not crispy, rather raw no side just spinach also swimming in the sauce. I told our waitress whom was very nice, all she said was I’m sorry maybe try something else next time! Kate most of them because I was hungry and it is a good thing I ordered a side salad!

Ive been to Alibis several times. The only reason I went back this time is that it was in a convenient spot. Good, as usual, was mediocre in taste, presentation and timeliness of arrival. This place makes me feel like Charlie Brown. I keep hoping and I keep being underwhelmed.

Review №47

Basically an updated Applebees with the same selection of beer with food thats at least not microwaved.The portions are okay for what you pay, and the service is friendly.Well probably be back, but its not like itll be a major outing or anyting, nice local watering holeOnly really negative thing about the place is that the AC was very cold when we visited. At a temperature about 85-90 Fahrenheit outside, it was probably 60 or 70 inside the building. I had to go out and grab a sweater from the car **in the middle of summer**

The guy at Trivia night awful. Despite annunciating every single word, and talking at maximum volume level, the staff finally turnned the volume down so that I could have conversation across the table with my party.Im not going to ever electively go back. Especially on a Wednesday.Food was good and so was our server. Not the Trivia.

I went in tonight looking for a particular waitress, but she wasnt working, the waitress I got was very out going, had a great smile, she told me what was good on the menu. I ordered the wings, drunk 3 beers . Very well priced, left a $50 tip. She was that damn good. Will definitely be back. Great atmosphere as well. Go Panthers!!!!!

Review №57

Over priced and poor quality. Called in an order, a Cobb salad $11.55 plus tip Togo 15 minutes that is why I gave it two stars The chicken ( was not grilled chicken but it was not breaded almost like lunch meat) and it tasted old the lettuce is brown Cucumbers are spoiled and the mushrooms are discolored a red purple tint. Poor choice on my part will remember next time

Server wasn’t attentive, half of the food came out after the other half of the table was finished with their meal. Food was okay. However, I will say the manager was very attentive and stepped in when she realized our server wasn’t taking care of us.

Nice neighborhood pub... I had the yellow fin tuna sandwich and it was flame... Not overcooked with a which was kind of a nice surprise. Everyone at the table loved the food. Service was great... Good selection of beer... Wine was average and it was way to cold in the restaurant which dropped a star for me but the food was so good that it made up for it. Well def be going back.

My wife and I have been here numerous times, and as of right now, it is our favorite place to stop and eat when we are being indecisive. We are new to the area. Everything Ive had here is good except for a buffalo chicken sandwich. Many great drafts, and a huge selection of drinks. Though be warned: there is a creepy guy who hangs around the restaurant and stares at people during their meals for uncomfortably long periods of time. I tried staring back to make him uncomfortable and to make him realize the error in his ways and it didnt work -- he has no shame. I thought he was an odd manager at first, but realized later he is just a very odd regular customer. Cant blame the company for his presence, but just know you may encounter him. Hes been there 3/5 of my visits.

Refused to give me my DoorDash pickup order because they were unaware they signed up for DoorDash pickup. Not delivery from DoorDash drivers, but pickup from the actual customers. It had never happened before and they flat out refused to give me my food. They called me rude and told me to call DoorDash to solve my problem.

I loved my experience here it was absolutely amazing. My bartender Alli took immaculant care of me and my friend. We never had an empty glass and the food she suggested was fantastic. I had the gourmet Mac n cheese and he had crab Mahi they were delightful. I definitely recommend this place to everyone!
